In addition,, as shown in the sectional view of Figure 10, also can on the 1st winding circuit 7, insulation course 4 be set.In addition,, as shown in the exploded perspective view of Fig. 1, the 1st winding circuit 7 and the 2nd winding circuit 8 can be formed as surveying with electrode 3 and y repacking and surveying and use the same directional end face of electrode 6 from x repacking.In addition,, in end, the upper surface of the 1st winding circuit 7 and the 2nd winding circuit 8 can not be insulated layer 4 and clad 9 covers.According to the additional structure about above-mentioned the 1st winding circuit 7 and the 2nd winding circuit 8, in end, the upper surface of the 1st winding circuit 7 and the 2nd winding circuit 8 is not insulated layer 4 and clad 9 covers, therefore, by flexible printed board (FPC) being set on the upper surface at the 1st winding circuit 7 and the 2nd winding circuit 8, can easily connect the 1st winding circuit the 7, the 2nd winding circuit 8 and flexible printed board (FPC).
Below, the each parts that form this flexible touch screen 10 are described.
< substrate sheets >
As the material of substrate sheets 1, can enumerate the resin moldings such as propylene, polycarbonate, polyester, polybutylene terephthalate, polypropylene, polyamide, polyurethane, Polyvinylchloride, polyvinyl fluoride, polyimide.The thickness of substrate sheets 1 can suitably be set in the scope of 5 μ m~800 μ m.If thickness is less than 5 μ m, as the undercapacity of layer, in the time peeling off, can break and wait and be difficult to processing, in the situation that thickness exceedes 800 μ m, substrate sheets 1 rigidity is excessive and be difficult to process, and can not obtain flexibility.
< x repacking is surveyed with electrode and y repacking and is surveyed and use electrode >
In Fig. 1, x repacking survey is made up of OBL multiple electrodes respectively with electrode 3 and y repacking survey electrode 6, but the shape of electrode is not limited to oblong-shaped.For example, survey with electrode 3 as x repacking, can, by forming by multiple rhombus electrodes that angular direction is connected, survey with electrode 6 as y repacking, can be by forming by multiple rhombus electrodes that angular direction is connected.In this case, Ke Yishi, in the time of the direction observation from vertical with surface, the rhombus electrode and the formation y repacking survey rhombus electrode of electrode that form x repacking survey electrode 3 are configured in the mode not overlapping each other.Like this, by x repacking survey electrode 3 and y repacking survey electrode 6 are configured in the mode not overlapping each other, can make the detection sensitivity of x axle and y axle not affect each other.In addition,, in Fig. 1, x repacking survey is made as respectively 4 by electrode 3 and the y repacking survey quantity of electrode 6, but is not limited to this, can be made as any amount.
In addition, x repacking survey can form by respectively conductive layer 13 and 16 being carried out to patterning with electrode 3 and y repacking survey electrode 6.As conductive layer 13,16, for example, can use the conductive layer being formed by the light-cured resin such as urethane acrylate, cyanoacrylate bonding agent, conductive nanometer fiber.In addition, conductive layer 13,16, except can make to photogravure, the various general printing processes such as hectographic printing, serigraphy arrange, can also arrange by such sheet such as bonding dry film being made up of the light-cured resin that contains conductive nanometer fiber etc.

The thickness of conductive layer 13,16 can suitably be set in the scope of tens of nm~hundreds of nm.In the time that thickness is thinner than tens of nm, as the undercapacity of layer, in the time that thickness is thicker than hundreds of nm, it is insufficient that flexibility becomes.
< conductive nanometer fiber >
Above-mentioned conductive nanometer fiber has the aspect ratio of about scope of 10~100,000.In the time that aspect ratio is larger, each conductive nanometer fiber is easily contact each other, can form effective x repacking and survey with electrode 3 and y repacking survey electrode 6.In addition, in order to obtain high transparent, the global density of conductive nanometer fiber reduces, and therefore, this is conducive to obtain the x repacking that the transparency is high and surveys with electrode 3 and y repacking survey electrode 6.That is, there is the conductive nanometer fiber of high aspect ratio by use, can fully reduce the density of conductive nanometer fiber, x repacking is surveyed with electrode 3 and y repacking and survey and use electrode 6 essence transparent.
In addition, in the time of the diameter d chap of conductive nanometer fiber, resistivity essence reduces, and electric conductivity improves, but on the other hand, owing to having absorbed more light, light transmission is reduced.Consequently, transparent variation.In addition, grain boundary and surface scattering become large in the time that diameter is less than 10nm on the impact of resistivity.In the time that diameter becomes large, these impacts sharply reduce.In the time that the diameter of conductive nanometer fiber is 10nm~100nm, x repacking survey significantly reduces by electrode 3 and the y repacking survey resistivity of electrode 6 entirety.But, the above-mentioned improvement in electrical specification need to and the transparency of nesa coating weigh between reducing.
As conductive nanometer fiber, for example, can use silver, gold, copper, nickel, vermeil and aluminium etc.Particularly, as the example of conductive nanometer fiber, can enumerate metal nano fiber and peptide nanofiber etc., wherein, described metal nano fiber applies voltage or action current, extracts out and produce continuously to the presoma surface of the metallic ions such as carrying gold, silver, platinum, copper, palladium from the leading section of probe, and described peptide nanofiber etc. is in the nanofiber forming, to add gold particle in peptide or derivatives thereof autologous tissue to form.In addition, even the conductive nanometer fiber 3 of the black such as carbon nano-tube, in the case of identifying and also become object difference with the aspect such as color or reflectivity of shadow.In addition,, as conductive nanometer fiber, be not limited to above-mentioned example.As conductive nanometer wire rod, silver nanoparticle fiber is particularly preferred.
< insulation course >
Insulation course 4 can use the insulation course that has utilized common insulative resin used.In addition, insulation course 4 can be by arranging photo-sensitive resin 14 and making it solidify to obtain.Photo-sensitive resin 14 can use the light-cured resins such as normally used urethane acrylate, cyanoacrylate.In addition as light-cured resin, can be also the light-cured resin that utilizes the light of the wavelength coverage in addition such as visible ray, ultraviolet light to be cured.
< the 1st winding circuit and the 2nd winding circuit >
